Today went better than my last two posts! Whew! I should say that in spite of being rather bored today and finding myself wandering into the kitchen, I forced myself to find things to do. I actually cleaned my sofa, vacuumed, washed all the removable covers, steam cleaned the rest, and re-stuffed the saggy cushions. It looks tons better and kept me out of the fridge.
Breakfast-grapenuts, banana. No sweetener today, and I am happy to report that I didn't miss it at all.
Snack- a serving of Wheat thins and an apple
Lunch- left over chicken fried steak from Shawn's dinner last night, about 5 oz and then about a cup and a half of sauteed zucchini (in Pam) with a little sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
Snack-a pudding cup (80 cals)
Dinner--3 egg rolls and later for dessert popcorn and a small piece of fudge.
Overall, still not super great, but not the terrible menu I've been forced to look at the past few days. I feel like I'm getting back on track. I also have been working on a to-do list for myself so that when I find myself wanting to snack on junk for no reason, I can redirect myself with something that needs to get done around here before I go back to school in August.
The couch was a great starting place and really worked.
I like the idea of a "chore list", I make a list of things I would like to accomplish everyday but maybe if I had a project list ranging from big projects to small ones I would have less time to snack. It would also be less demanding than the daily list because it would just be for when I am bored so I wouldn't feel obligated to work on it all day every day.
